Separating the art from the artist with Joko | Bleeding Metal Podcast 2.7

Bleeding Metal Podcast

On a new episode of Bleeding Metal, Kiki and Pia are joined by German vocalist Jenny (@cthulhus13) to talk about wether we can separate the art we love from a problematic, controversial or even criminal artist. We talk through some cases of allegations of abuse, what we find can be forgiven as a fan, and how we have personally gone through the decision process of separating or not. We also have some advice for how to keep enjoying music or art in general, even though we don't want to support a certain artist or creator.

Recorded on April 5th, 2022.
